아리아드 호텔(Arriadh Hotel)

I really don't understand why this hotel has 4.5 stars. I suggest you read some of the 1 & 2 star reviews - most of which are 10 years old - because things haven't improved! Our room was cold and dark, with virtually no facilities at all, no fridge, no minibar, no tea-making, no food available in the non-existent restaurant, not even a tv (never seen that before), but we soon realised why: the walls are paper thin, so you can hear everything that's going on next door. The mattress was completely bùggered with two massive dips either side. It was like sleeping in a hammock! Also, a piece of spring had popped out one side, just where your thigh goes when you're getting in and out (photo), and I was gouged on 2 or 3 occasions! The toilet was right 'in' the bedroom, so no privacy, wifi was poor, access to the hotel was 1km up a rough cart track that made us wish we'd come in our 4x4. God knows what it must be like in the dark! If you want to visit Ronda, then don't stay here, unless you have a car (or preferably a 4x4). The only saving grace was the nice breakfast that we were able to take overlooking the beautiful view of the valley.

We had a lovely stay at the Arriadh Hotel, we only stayed 2 nts and wished we had booked more, the cleanliness and location were perfect, the gorgeous views were breathtaking, the hosts were very welcoming and helpful Can’t wait to go back Thank you

Arriadh is in a beautiful, rural setting and has drop-dead gorgeous views. Our room had a tiny balcony with the same lovely view but the room itself was quite basic. Furnishings throughout are long in the tooth. Breakfast was basic and, essentially, prepackaged. Good place to stay if aware of the limitations. Would return.

We only stayed one night and wished we could have stayed for longer. Beautiful location excellent hosts and just thoroughly nice - lovely breakfast as well. Pleasant walk down into Arriate. Well located for Ronda.

We visited here in 2009 during January so were excited about revisiting 13 years later! The present owners are fantastic. We had the same room with the terrace and the pool was awesome. It was those extra touches that made our 2 night stay special. Such as my fiancee waking up early one morning and sitting on our terrace; one of the owners saw her and offered her a coffee. The breakfast was nice and the bar prices are not at all inflated (which you would legitimately accept in a place as beautiful as this). At night, just open the shutters and enjoy the fresh mountain breeze! No air con required. The place is so clean throughout. Thoroughly enjoyed this short stopover.

Beautiful site out of town. Great breakfast. Proprietors were helpful

We had a great stay at the Arriadh hotel. It is such a beautiful boutique hotel on a hill overlooking the village of Arriate. Waking up in the morning with that view.. I will never forget that! Nor the hospitality of the host, always with a smile, who serves the excellent breakfast in the morning and prepares a "family dinner" for all hotel guests. We had a great stay!

Very good welcome from hosts. They are there to help us. Unique peaceful environment. Great place to stay.

Great location! Between Ronda and Setenil de la Bodegas, 2 must-see Spainish towns! Great place, very welcoming and comfortable! Would stay again! 👍
